US $14.99 For parts or not working in Business & Industrial, Electrical & Test Equipment, Test Equipment

Cords and leads all dry rotted.  Common terminal plastic damaged.  Batteries were left inside and one was leaking.  See photos.  Appears to be complete.  I suspect this could be brought back to life with a little work or would make a good parts unit.

I bought this a couple years ago intending to get it working, but it has sat around since then.  I am liquidating most of my old Ham gear due to my interests changing.  I will be listing some other items as time allows.

This unit is obviously not working right now and I am selling it as-s with no returns.
